Visa Buxx?

Hello.

im a 14 year old who’s parents want to get a debit like card for me and i discoverd visa buxx.

Im wondering if you can keep putting money on the card so it all adds up or does it restart?

O and is visa buxx a good choice or is there somthing better?

admin answers:

Visa Buxx has a limit of $2500 that you can add to the card. My kids use this and they love it. It helps them (and me) keep track of their money. They actually ask me less and less for money, because they’re not losing it, or I’m not finding it in the laundry! LOL

Daniel asks…

Can I get Visa Buxx Card for elderly parents who do not have a credit card?

My parents are retired and I want them to carry credit cards for emergencies. I know that there are other re-loadable, prepaid cards out there, but Buxx Cards seem to give more online control to monitor usage and add credit. What are the age limitations? I searched Visa and offering banks’ websites, but could not find this information.

Also, will this affect my credit score?

admin answers:

Yes I think you can give visa buxx to anyone (they are really made
for teenagers but I dont see why wont work for elderly people too
also since its a prepaid -re loadable card it wont effect your credit score
since you will be pay cash to load it
in fact here an artilce which talks about visa buxx for eldery

Robert asks…

Can I use a visa buxx card on pay pal to use on eBay?

I was wondering if i could use a visa buxx card as a minor on pay pal to pay for stuff on eBay and will the money go directly to the card. Also is there a max limit on the cards?
What about the Visa reloadable can i use it on paypal and get money directly deposited to my account?
Never mind about the reloadable you have to be 18 before you can use it anyway I’m only 15.

I thought VISA BUXX was long dead and gone.

Steven asks…

What is a good amount to give on a Visa Buxx Card as a Christmas gift for each of my sons who are 15 and 13?

This will be their only Christmas gift from me. I chose Visa Buxx because they will not be charged to use it and I can track their spending and we can discuss their choices.

admin answers:

200 each

Call the number on the back of the card & ask them how you could do it. That’s what they are there for.

Susan asks…

Does anyone have a Visa Buxx card or a prepaid credit card type thing?

If I got a visa buxx, which is a prepaid credit card for teens, could I use it to order stuff off the internet?
My mom only gives me cash and she doesn’t like me to use her credit card, so when I see something that I love on the internet, I can’t really get it. So thats why I’m hoping I can get a Visa Buxx card.
Can’t you use them as a regular credit card and order stuff off the internet with it?

admin answers:

They are great of online purchases. If anyone gets the number, so what. You only put 20 bucks on it to make a purchase then its worthless.
Ready to buy again, slap on 60 bucks for those 49 dollar games and done.

Great security feature
